Endangered Reputation

This captivating story from the world of the English aristocracy is set in bustling London three years after Napoleon's final defeat, a time when everyone is trying to carve out their own share of love and recognition, even under the strict supervision of high society.

Raphe Matthews hasn't set foot in high society since misfortune plunged his once-wealthy noble family into poverty and debt. For the past fifteen years, he has been trying to support himself and his two sisters by taking part in boxing matches. A twist of fate brings him the title of Duke of Huntley. He wants to become the perfect lord, but he can't do it on his own.
After her sister enters into a scandalous marriage, Lady Gabriella knows that high society has turned its attention to her. She is aware that teaching the new duke proper etiquette could ruin her reputation. However, she finds Raphe irresistibly attractive, and with each day she spends with him, she becomes more and more certain that he is the man she cannot live without. And when a scandal threatens to erupt, she must decide whether she is willing to risk losing everything for her love for him.
